Auxiliary functions in case of disability

If you have a disability that get in the way of your studies, you can get support during your studies at the University. For example, it may be reading- and writing difficulties, dyslexia, psychiatric and neuropsychiatric disorders, hearing loss, visual impairment, motion disabilities or chronic diseases. You should be able to show proof of disability.

Disabilities are according to the Discrimination Act (SFS 2008:567) "permanent physical, mental or intellectual limitations on a person's ability to function as a result of an injury or a disease existed from birth, has occurred afterwards or can be expected to occur. "

What kind of support you need depends on what obstacles your disability poses for you in your studies. The support is planned and designed in consultation with you as a student. If you need assistance, contact one of the coordinators for students with disabilities at the University. Contact details can be found at the bottom of this page.
